    how is only 300nits and 1:1000 contrast remotely HDR?

    • HDehhhR

    • Tired of it tbh, it’s a joke they are allowed to use it in the advertising of monitors when it is negligible at best.

      Surely skirts the line of false advertising I would think bit they just keep doing it.

  • 28 is such a weird screen size for a monitor. They should've just made it 27

    While I would normally say "60hz is not gaming" this is a 4k screen, so realistically you're going to struggle to get about 60fps on AAA games anyway.

  • In my humble opinion, 28" is too small for 4K for productivity use

    • I have a 4K 27” and I really like it. Good size and like the sharpness.. run it at a scaled factor of course.

      Had a 4K 32” but found it too grainy for my liking. Also too big for my taste.

      But each to their own!

        I agree: I use a Samsung UR55 28" 4K UHD for everyday work (electrical engineering design). It's awesome, I enjoy the 'retina' pixel density for text and graphics. Font rendering/kerning is really good as it's scaled 125%, giving it a rounded, sharp look (you can't see the grey antialising pixels).

        If I hadn't just spent a s*ittonne on a new house mortgage, I'd buy this to complement my current one.

        There are guys at work who do mechanical CAD work and asked for bigger monitors - they got given 32" Full HD monitors :D Some would have rathered stick with the 24" Full HD they had originally.

  • Would it be better than the Lenovo 4K monitor on Amazon? https://www.amazon.com.au/Lenovo-L28u-30-28-inch-Monitor-Rav…

    • I don't think so necessarily. They all use the same LCD panel. When I was researching my UR55 I realised that for 27" and 28" monitors, all the manufacturers source the panels from two or three manufacturers (Optronics and LG from memory). The difference then is just in the stuff around it: interfaces, OSD, build quality, etc. But at $400 you're going to get a pretty cheap build quality, like my Samsung. Screen is great to look at though.

    • That Lenovo you have linked is IPS and the BenQ after some searching is a TN panel - different panels tech so be aware of the pros/cons of each.
      Interestingly TN is usually used for fast refresh rate/response times at the expense of picture quality but although this monitor supposedly has a 1ms response time the refresh rate is "only" 60Hz (probs still ok for 4k as earlier posters have mentioned):
